I've hired a room with a large garden for my 5yr old's bday. Around 20 children and some family/friends. Will have bouncy castle, entertainer, buffet tea at end (3-5pm)
How would you do coffee and tea (no hot water dispenser, flasks..). Do we bring a kettle and designate DH to take orders, using instant coffee (yuck?)? We weirdly both don't drink tea or coffee so I can't even make a decent cuppa..
I plan to leave out soft drinks for people to pour themselves. I need everyone to be as DIY as possible.
Also plan to pre-make finger sandwiches, crudites, oven food (will be cold) for adults. Not sure if itd be eaten but our friends and family are coming a long way.
How do I set up the room - an adult table far away from or near the kids table?
Also what would be a good running order so that I can get the entertainer to control the whole event and help usher kids to table etc?
Stressed.. tia
